    Blown Mazda Miata kill

    It was a beautiful NC day today, so I washed up ole Betsy and took her out for...a spin.

    After I wasted a 1/4 tank with no luck I headed back home. That is when I ran up on some guy driving a red LT1 Z28 with an SLP loudmouth and black 96 SS wheels. He punched it trying to getaway, and I reeled him in easily twice, but that Z was pretty mean sounding. Then I got in front and laid on the throttle and put him in the dust.

    While I was fartin' around with the red Z lo and behold a mazda miata with padded roll bars, lowered, nice wheels, black with silver racing stripes (yeah, I know, but kind of baddass to be honest) rolls onto 70 behind us, and he has some hottie with him. (trying to impress no doubt)

    I threw him a rev when he is right beside the catback, him and his woman were smiling ear to ear on that NASCAR tune. We both punch it and cone about 3 cars in a row then pulled to 115 or so in a straight away, but something caught my ear. I could have sworn I heard a roots blower when this guy punched that Mazda. I put some lengths on him, but I think the Mazda put the old butthurt on the LT1 in turn.

    We come up to a light, and they are behind me, and still wanting to race. I leave a nice set of lines going across the intersection, he flies up, then we take off again, I put another whuppin' on him. I slow to 55, and he pulls up beside, we give the thumbs up, and he punched it, and there is NO DOUBT that car had a fkn blower on it. Can you believe it, a fkn Mazda Miata! It sounded just like an 03 Eaton, that shrill whistle.

    Dang, that thing looked like a hopped up go cart, and pretty damn cool too, with those racing stripes...not to mention the blower.

    Wish I could have gotten a pic of that little contraption.

    I had a 2000 Toyota MR2 Sypder- with aftermarket (turbo, exhaust, intake, suspension, etc..) -- @ 10 psi ---I bought it that way---

    I had it for about 8 months, and it was fun. But it was no LS1.

    And my dream of having an LS1..was due to be fulfilled.

    So I can vouch that 2-seater turbo, go carts are fun.. But just not the same.

    Not all imports are rice...I think this story proves that there are some pretty badass Tuners out there.

    I wouldn't mind that Mazda being in my driveway. Sure would be a fun road-course toy!

    It's quick and can corner like no other. I'm keeping it stock tho, no point in trying to make a DD a racer as well...besides I can stomp pretty much every ricer out there and I can hang with pre-05 Mustangs (6-Speed ftw)
